Simple News for Getting Found Online!

Simple Marketing Now Newsletter - May 2013

Hi there,

Have you embraced blogging for your business? It's a powerful means for connecting with customers and building trust with them. It's also valuable for getting found online.

At the same time, business blogging isn't for everyone.

It requires a strong committment to publish regularly and consistently.
It means that your business focuses intensely on customers and the questions they have.
It works best if you are comfortable with your business blog reflecting personality and sounding like a real person is writing it.
It demands a plan so you can manage it.
It needs to be integrated into your overall business strategy.

That said, if your business isn't blogging, it is missing out on benefitting from a powerful tool.

If I haven't scared you away, and you're ready for perspective and guidance, I recommend that you download our newest business blogging guide.

Why Social Media for Business? TalkFloor Summary.

At Surfaces 2013, Sarah Kelly and I teamed up for the second year to discuss social media and how to apply it to business. We had a blast!

	Duane Reade Customers Want Therapy from Retail Experience If you've spent time in New York City, you're probably familiar with Duane Reade, the drugstore chain. Your memories of that drugstore chain may be similar to mine: intensely utilitarian, not necessarily fun and certainly not a destination for relaxation or therapy. Not exactly the kind of retail experience to inspire, engage or generate much enthusiasm for.
